I’m wanting someone experienced in flash who can customize a flash video player in my jQuery slider at: http://www.ghostpool.com/wordpress/magnifizine

I want to be able to click play on an embedded flash video inside the slider, causing the slider to automatically stop rotating through the other slides while the video is playing. Additionally, but this is not absolutely necessary, I want the slider to return to auto rotation after the video file has finished playing.

If you’re interested let me know. :)

Have you found the answer to this? I’m trying to pause the slider when the embedded vimeo video is playing.

Yes I’ve solved this issue. You have a few options.

If you want the video to auto play then use a slider script that allows you to customize the timeout of individual slides so it matches the length of the video e.g. jQuery Cycle.

If the video is not autoplaying you can use jQuery to have an image when clicked load the video and pause the slider at the time.

My Magnifizine theme does all of this with videos, including Vimeo.
